Zerofy

Zerofy is a sustainability app that automatically tracks your carbon footprint in real time and then makes recommendations for lowering it by switching to low-carbon energy and products. Seventy percent of global greenhouse gas emissions are indirectly attributable to households: we have a lot of power to act, right at home. Zerofy tracks your household footprint, automated and in real-time, and helps you decarbonize, learn, and save money on heating and energy. It’s like a step tracker, but for your carbon emissions. Typical users of the Zerofy app are people who want to make a difference by reducing their emissions. They may already be quite interested in electrification, emissions reductions, and smart home devices, or maybe brand new. Zerofy is different from other apps on the market because we provide a holistic picture of a household’s carbon emissions. Instead of just tracking one or two areas, we show your emissions across four main sources: heating and energy, mobility, goods and services, and food. We’re also set apart because we focus on measurable, additional climate actions on an individual level. Instead of selling carbon offsets, we empower users with granular insights into their emissions and then give them tangible and actionable ways to work towards reducing them. We designed our app to make the process of tracking and reducing emissions frictionless. Here’s how it works: * Sign up and enter your household characteristics, plus details about mobility, diet, home heating, and energy. You can add a goal for when you would like your household to become zero-carbon. Connect smart home appliances and devices, plus credit cards, for even deeper insights. * The app then automatically generates your household carbon emissions, in real-time. * You’ll be given recommended actions you can take to reduce your emissions. Plus, learn through articles and guides, and access low-carbon products and services in the Discover tab. * Habitually track emissions and see the impact of your actions on your household carbon footprint while working towards a zero-carbon life. Zerofy was founded in 2022 by Criss Uudam and Till Quack, entrepreneurs and product builders with complementary expertise across software development, renewable energy, and financing. Zerofy raised pre-seed funding in 2022 from San Francisco-based Union Labs and multiple angel investors. The app is available for free in the iOS App Store in Europe and will be available in the US in early 2023.
